De La Soul - Dreams of the Funky Towel lyrics

rate me

[Dove]

In rap goes apartment leave your chart bent off of hits

And catch mad love with a mix

Scream on fire like grits, and make sure the shine spits

Do away with all ignorance

Look out for the roaches and the pits Mr. Burns beware

[Mos Def]

I be the Mr. Bern like the Bernstein Bears

Keep it Sloppy like Joe, cuz Joe don't care

But as long as I maintain savoirfaire

And the bums on the street chump change I spare

Keep it slick like James Brown hair, do

keep it raw like the Z Ave crew, true

The temperature's high up, or H-D

If the last thing's a booger you can't count on me

I'm a give a cockroaches, Mos Definitely

[Posdonus]

Now the apartment is getting kinda hot up in here

I guess a De La Soul jam's been placed in your ear

Added sugar to the thoughts of the inner-city circle

Who might have to hurt you on a night that's late

When you're in the wrong town picking up your date

I guess your date wasn't set on having you for a mate

Chorus: Dove

Sweet dreams are made of these

Who am I, to disagree?

I travelled the world and the seven seas

And everybody, say it's gotta be funky

[Posdonus]

We be the Suns party people rotate around the fun

(It's Plug One) One never played no guns

I specialize in never putting wool over the eyes

This is the tower of stain that wouldn't be surprised

if you didn't apply it to the ordinary skin

I'm a MC in love with the way-back-when

Match pens to pad, I be Ayamo's dad

Doing laundry to clean up on reality's fad

[Dove]

Now we in a sticky situation but we make it FON-KAY

And bring it back to the days of watching PU-NKY

Brewster, used ta, be in L.I. flats

With the bricks, jibbin this and that, upon tracks

[Mos Def]

We came to thank kids, not the blankets, but the towel

Shed love with the verb and the vowel

Move grooves like a bowel, De La representer

See funky is the way we keep it settin in your dreams like that

Chorus 2X

Teah yeah, gonna keep it real for the apartments in your area

Yeah, gonna move it like this everybody just funk in your area

Pos One's in your area, Maseo's in your area

Too much Plug, Two much Plug

Plug Two's in your area

De La's in the area

Attic entertainment

Peace
